Michael Smerconish: Fox News On Jeffrey Epstein & Bill Clinton

"Dozens of court documents related to the convicted sex felon Jeffrey Epstein and unsealed Wednesday include the names of several prominent figures. Among them: former President Bill Clinton and former President Donald Trump.

Neither Clinton nor Trump have been accused of any wrongdoing related to Epstein, who killed himself in a Manhattan jail while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges.

The documents — which total nearly 1,000 pages — were part of a 2015 defamation lawsuit brought against Epstein and his former girlfriend and convicted accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, by Virginia Giuffre, one of their accusers.

In the documents, Giuffre alleged that many of sexual encounters occurred under the guise of massages that Maxwell, a British socialite, procured for Epstein and others.

Giuffre claimed that while she was a teenager, Epstein and Maxwell pressured her into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew. Giuffre reached an out-of-court settlement with Andrew, who denied her allegations.

U.S. District Judge Loretta A. Preska ordered the unsealing of the documents in mid-December, saying that most of the information and names in them were already public.

The newly unsealed documents include the transcript of a 2016 deposition in which a second accuser, identified as Johanna Sjoberg, testified that Epstein "said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls." She did not elaborate.

Sjoberg testified that Epstein told her he would take her to Trump’s Atlantic City casino but did not allege any wrongdoing. She also said in a deposition that Prince Andrew had inappropriately touched her at Epstein's mansion in New York.

In all, Clinton’s name appears 73 times in the documents unsealed Wednesday; Trump’s name appears four times." 


Seeing and hearing about Fox News's coverage of Jeffrey Epstein's little black book suggests to me that their audience might be getting smaller. Because they're only going after people in America who simply hate Democrats, especially Bill Clinton and his allies because of what they represent in America, which is the new America, the free America, the diverse America, etc, everything that the Far-Right in America (which is now Donald Trump's MAGA movement) hates about America. Fox News concentrates on people for their audience who are more likely to believe that Bill Clinton ordered the hit on Vince Foster back in the early 1990s, then that Donald Trump ever lost a popular vote for anything in his entire life. 

I say all of this because Bill Clinton hasn't been President of the United States for 23 years now. He's never run for another public office, or will he ever run for public office again. He's never done anything illegal in his life, never been charged with doing anything illegal in his life. Being under investigation for potential bad behavior has never been the same as even being charged for illegal behavior. 

And yet with all the other associates and social acquaintances that Jeffrey Epstein had in his life, both with Democrats and Republicans, mainly wealthy Democrats and Republicans, including Bill Clinton, but Donald Trump as well, as well as the foreign government officials like Prince Andrew of the United Kingdom, Fox News only concentrates on Bill Clinton's alleged relationships, as well as the bogus (to be real kind) rumors without even trying to back them up, or even find the source for them, that Bill Clinton likes young women like some type of pervert or something.
